Shadow Shot Time

First a hit of early summer colour to keep us afloat with hope of Spring coming SOON !
Morden Sunrise is a gorgeous shrub rose that creates so many different looks to its own flowers it is amazing!
There are loads of shadows in all the nooks and crannies where the light hits just right : )

Back in the real world ... I fell for these shadows of my garden stakes .. they mimic the delicate lines that my Crimson Queen Japanese Maple has with it's delicate arms spread out on the sparkling snow.

Joy, this is quite a mysterious looking shadow shot. I love the descriptive phrase "Crimson Queen Japanese Maple has with its delicate arms spread out on the sparkling snow." Very poetic sounding! Our Valentine's Day was fairly nondescript, I am sorry to say. After a long day, we were both exhausted. In the evening and it was dinner in front of the television for us. Still there is love and comfort in that simple evening routine. Hope you had a nice Valentine's Day!

Ah, Spring...after the 35 of snow last week, it cannot arrive soon enough! The peachy pastel rose petals remind us of the warmer and more garden friendly weather that will be here soon...at least snow and sun leave shadows of art on the cold ground :)

I just found your blog today. WOW, I am preparing to post two sets of shadows I took today and recently. Great minds think alike! they will be on my blog this week. Hope you get to view them. Shadows say way more about the moment. Here on the shores of Lake Michigan the shadows from plants or stones is great. See you soon again. Jack

I'm trolling the blogs looking for colour. Thank you for such a pretty rose and such a delightful colour. Did you get that 2cm of snow (that turned out to be closer to 13cm) on Saturday? Am going to Success with Gardening on Thursday at the International Centre - am so looking forward to seeing green stuff.B.
